"Frank was a passionate public servant who was not afraid to fight and vote for what he believed in. He loved the Senate," said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash. "He retired once but service called him back, and until the very end of his life, Frank made the trip from New Jersey to D.C. to fight for the issues he believed in and the people he represented. He gave everything he had to public service."

Republican Gov. Chris Christie, whom the Democrat Lautenberg frequently criticized, will appoint a successor and a special election will determine a replacement. Newark Mayor Cory Booker had announced his intention to run and had raised some $2 million.

I heard he decided to have the Special Election this year. Dick Armey was furious !One reason I respect Christie is he is at least civil and logical... don't agree with his philosophy but he's not cruel & ruthless like most of the GOP Leadership. Also he tells it like he sees it. no bologna !

It's hard to believe how hard Sen Lautenberg had to Fight to have the 2nd Highest Water Falls on the East Coast declared as a "National Park" owing tothe part it's played in Industrialization of America ever since the Revolutionary War.
